Ye; commentary spoke of 2 positions for the gantry, one for tall vehicles.

I drove in to an underground car park in my van (got under the barrier easily), can you imagine my horror when I started to hear a banging noise? Luckily it was just the springy aerial knocking on to the sprinkler system! I chickened out though when I saw a fairly low duct pipe and managed to weave through parking spaces back out the car park sharpish. It was a brand new van.

Poor bus driver!

By the sounds of it, it wasnt so much the bus driver but the person who let him drive that way once the gantry had been lowered. At least it cant get any weirder for the next 3 weeks....can it?!
